sinterklaas

On Saturday we went to the town of Zwolle (where Ross works) - to see Sinterklaas.

Sinterklaas also visited our house last night to bring a few presents to the kids. It is a tradition in Holland for the children to put their shoes out each night from around the 15 of November until Sinterklaas leaves Holland on his birthday, 5 of December. Sinterklaas may leave a present one of the nights - but not necessarily every night.

I will describe the "traditions" of the Sinterklaas holiday in detail later this week!
